A GREAT MISTAKE

has heretofore been made in the treatment
of rheumatism, neuralgia, and nervous or
sick headache. This is evidenced by the
failure on the part of thousands of sufferers
to find relief, even though they have ex-
hausted the skill of various physicians and
tried numerous so-called remedies. To
such Athlophoros is offered as safe, sure,
and quick cure. Its success has been phe-
nomenal, and yet it is not surprising be-
cause it will do all that is claimed for it.
The Athlophoros Co. will gladly refer any
who desire to make an investigation 10 re-
liable parties who have been cured by it.
J. P. Mallette, of the Mallette & Ray
mond Manu-. Co., No. 1923 South Canal St,
Chicago, ILL.,, says: "My wife has been great
sufferer from neuralgia for long while,
but half bottle of Athlophoros cured her
so that she has not suffered any since.
When it was first recommended to her,
she would not get it as she was always OPP
posed to taking any kind of patent medi-
cines. But as the treatment she was under
gave her no relief insisted on her trying
Athlophoros. After taking half bottle
the neuralgia was gone and has not re-
turned since"

me to my bed. | tried various medicines
and was prescribed for by physicians with
no avail. Finally | was induced to try
Athlophoros. l was relieved and cured SO
quickly that words could not tell my sur

it to any one suffering with that painful
complaint, rheumatism. A. NJ. BLAKNEY,

Every druggist should keep Athlophoros
and Athlophoros Pills, but where they can
not be bought of the druggist the Athlo-
phoros Co, liz Wall St, New York, will
send either carriage paid on receipt of
regular price, which is Sl00 per bottle

81, there will be lecture at the associa.
ton rooms by Prof. n. W. Thompson
of Geneseo college, on the subject The
Possibilities of the young men of 1887. -
Tickets for this lecture may be procured
free from any of the members of the
association or the general secretary, and
will admit either a gentleman alone or a
lady and gentleman. The reason for
thus limiting the tickets is that
the room is limited, and that the
lecture is particularly for young men.
Prof. Thornton is scholarly man, and
what he has to say is sure to be good
and well put. There is no charge for
tickets and no collection Young men
are specially invited.

The Chicago Tribune, which, until
quite recently, has been one of the
stronges: and most influential advocates
of the Hennepin canal, has turned its
coat and is now an opponent greatly to
be feared and regretted. The reason of
the 1ribuReS conduct is unexplainable.
Gov. BrOSs, who is president Of the Trib
sHe COMPANY has always been tir eless
worker in the interests of Henuepin. and
1T is scarcely to be believed now that
Mr.. Bross is personally otherwise tina n
friendly To the project. The Tribune
nova days either treats the canal with
contempt or ridicules it. The Inter
ocean is an ardent friend of the canal,
and when the Times says anything, it is
in friendly way. The Nescs and Nail
are bitterly opposed to it, and the Herald
leaves it severely alone, watching its uLs
and downs with the silence charac-
teristic of journal independent
in all things. 1t will do no paper
any good. no matter how broad or far
reaching is its influence. to oppose q
measure looking to SO much benefit to
commerce. and such 4 benefit to the
IN asses as the Hennepin canal does.

to learn that there is such province

elected officers. a Territorial Dele
gate is on his way here to esk for seat
in Congress and admission for their Sec

rived from the largest river which
flows through the proposed Territory.
This land appears on the maps at the
Interior Depart mentvs "pub!ic lands"
1t is parallelog ram, thirty miles
wide, larger than the State of Del

northwo tern boundary and empti'
into the Arkansas river in the Indian
Territory. Cirnmarou Territory came
into the possession of the United States
in 1919 under what is known as the
Florida treaty with Spain, by which
| treaty Florida was secured and Texas
was lost. The proposed Territory of

division of the United States. The
